About the Book: In The Wake is a collection of poetry spanning two decades of my life ashore after a long career at sea. Time across the ages had been propelled by experiences that reflect in my verses. I lay bare my thoughts and reflections, splitting them in the four directions of my inner compass; my ponderings over the human challenge, love and its longings, the social questionnaire, and the environmental issues that have churned my mind. These four cardinals of the compass overlap and interweave, as I attempt to make my poetry all encompassing.
